These meals present an opportunity for immigrant families to share knowledge and skills unique to them. It is also an opportunity for us to get a glimpse into their culture. These fundraising efforts can set them on a path of greater independence and confidence in their lives here in in the USA.

When you attend a Welcome Neighbor STL Supper Club, your meal will be prepared by immigrant neighbors who will share their traditional cooking skills by providing a table full of traditional food from their country of origin.

Suggested donation: $25 per person.

The event will be held on Thursday, February 7, 2019 from 6pm-8pm at Congregation Temple Israel at #1 Rabbi Alvan D. Rubin Dr. St. Louis, MO 63141. Come and join us!
